we are having a conversation we never had before around the debt ceiling. that is paying a dollar per dollar increase we are trying to push the nfl envelope of one h of the congress. in the 30,000 foot view of things even if everything worked perfectly you are adding 6 to $7 trillion in debt it is not fund am tal change. in terms of the subject matter it is change and at the end of the day we are slowing the growth of the government we are still adding a massive amount of debt instead of running toward bankruptcy we are walking toward bankruptcy. you fight hard and you get more numbers. passion and numbers have to go together. i hope the american people are watching today because you can clearly see who wants to grow the government and who wants to reduce it and who wants to have a strong defense and who is willing to fill this department out. >> one of the things is 75 percent of the american people want a balanced budget amendment. what i would like to know is whether or not harry reid would have a power to table this october 1st to december 31st deadline
